@lionheartx10 Hello Sir, is there any reason you arenโt doing a series with the new Pharaoh update, or plans to do one soon? Apologies if I have missed info on this.
When you feel like giving up, just remember the reason why you held on for so long.
Life is worth living, for the special moments that can be cherished together.
Youโre loved and people want you in their life.
We didnโt pussy foot around on either of those players. On one in particular, we were very much โ๐๐๐ ๐๐โ by AFC / Scottish football standards, I can absolutely, 150% assure you.
But in spite of that, when you are pitching for, and chasing, really good players, those are also often sought after by other big clubs - in these particular cases, in the Turkish Sรผper Lig or in Italy.
These clubs have their own attractions and, importantly, have significantly deeper pockets that can make it so difficult for players to refuse (and I get that!).
It would be too easy for Barry Robson and Steven Gunn to simply sign players for the sake of it, to panic and to quench the huge thirst and frenzy (often fuelled by the now click-seeking media) for new faces and signings, as has now become the norm across all clubsโ supporters.
But in my opinion, our business has been good so far (weโve paid substantial fees for five players with the option for a 6th), and we have more still to do as we come into the busiest part of the window, when most of the deals happens as clubs and players finally make up their minds given short timescales.
We are aware we need more players and more strength / resilience across various areas, and thatโs what weโre going to try hard to do as quickly as we possibly can.
"Aberdeen is shite"
